Abstract
The posttranslational modification of proteins critically influences many biological processes and is a key mechanism that regulates the function of the RNA-binding protein Hu antigen R (HuR), a hub in liver cancer. Here, we show that HuR is SUMOylated in the tumor sections of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in contrast to the surrounding tissue, as well as in human cell line and mouse models of the disease. SUMOylation of HuR promotes major cancer hallmarks, namely proliferation and invasion, whereas the absence of HuR SUMOylation results in a senescent phenotype with dysfunctional mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum. Mechanistically, SUMOylation induces a structural rearrangement of the RNA recognition motifs that modulates HuR binding affinity to its target RNAs, further modifying the transcriptomic profile toward hepatic tumor progression. Overall, SUMOylation constitutes a mechanism of HuR regulation that could be potentially exploited as a therapeutic strategy for liver cancer.

Key Role of the Local Hydrophobicity in the East Patch of Plastocyanins on Their Thermal Stability and Redox Properties. ACS OMEGA 2018; 3:11447-11454.

Abstract
Understanding the molecular basis of the thermal stability and functionality of redox proteins has important practical applications. Here, we show a distinct thermal dependence of the spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of two plastocyanins from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Phormidium laminosum and their mesophilic counterpart from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, despite the similarity of their molecular structures. To explore the origin of these differences, we have mimicked the local hydrophobicity in the east patch of the thermophilic protein by replacing a valine of the mesophilic plastocyanin by isoleucine. Interestingly, the resulting mutant approaches the thermal stability, redox thermodynamics, and dynamic coupling of the flexible site motions of the thermophilic protein, indicating the existence of a close connection between the hydrophobic packing of the east patch region of plastocyanin and the functional control and stability of the oxidized and reduced forms of the protein.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-BIOENERGETICS 2014; 1837:1717-29. [PMID: 25091281 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbabio.2014.07.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2014] [Revised: 07/23/2014] [Accepted: 07/26/2014] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
In plants, channeling of cytochrome c molecules between complexes III and IV has been purported to shuttle electrons within the supercomplexes instead of carrying electrons by random diffusion across the intermembrane bulk phase. However, the mode plant cytochrome c behaves inside a supercomplex such as the respirasome, formed by complexes I, III and IV, remains obscure from a structural point of view. Here, we report ab-initio Brownian dynamics calculations and nuclear magnetic resonance-driven docking computations showing two binding sites for plant cytochrome c at the head soluble domain of plant cytochrome c1, namely a non-productive (or distal) site with a long heme-to-heme distance and a functional (or proximal) site with the two heme groups close enough as to allow electron transfer. As inferred from isothermal titration calorimetry experiments, the two binding sites exhibit different equilibrium dissociation constants, for both reduced and oxidized species, that are all within the micromolar range, thus revealing the transient nature of such a respiratory complex. Although the docking of cytochrome c at the distal site occurs at the interface between cytochrome c1 and the Rieske subunit, it is fully compatible with the complex III structure. In our model, the extra distal site in complex III could indeed facilitate the functional cytochrome c channeling towards complex IV by building a "floating boat bridge" of cytochrome c molecules (between complexes III and IV) in plant respirasome.
